摘      要：BACKGROUND Segmental zoster paresis,depending on the affected area,can present with severe clinical manifestations and render patients unable to perform activities of daily ***,it is necessary to diagnose and treat such a condition *** studies have reported using magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)to identify clinical abnormalities associated with this condition or its complete *** rare case report evaluated the changes in MRI findings before and after the patient’s motor symptoms *** SUMMARY A 79-year-old woman with a history of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis visited the hospital for skin rashes and pain in the C5-T2 *** diagnosis was herpes zoster infection,and treatment was ***,motor weakness suddenly occurred 14 d after the initial symptom *** confirmed abnormal findings in the nerves and muscles invaded by the shingles using electromyography and *** 17 mo,the patient’s symptoms had completely normalized,and MRI confirmed that there were no *** MRI can be a useful diagnostic modality for segmental zoster paresis and patient evaluation during recovery from motor complications.
